Developers are like customers. You have some customers who play by the rules and benefit the company and themselves. Then you have "those" customers who think the world owes them everything. They whine and bitch about anything and everything. They refuse to follow rules or regulations, whine when they don't get their own way, and will purposely try to manipulate and play the system to their advantage.

Eventually, the company notices and places strict guidelines, rules and restrictions to make sure "those" customers can no longer take advantage of the company. Meanwhile, the customers who do play by the rules now have to deal with the hassle of the same restrictions because "those" customers had to ruin it for everyone.

And anyone who has ever worked customer service knows exactly what I'm on about. That's the reason there is a billion lines of fine print for just about everything these days.

So instead of jumping on the whole "lets bash Apple because they're a successful corporation" bandwagon, how about blaming the people who take advantage of the system and break the rules which is what inevitably what got the rules put there in the first place.

Screw this "beaming it over" nonsense. Yes, that is a very nerdy/geeky thing to do. "Zune"-ing music wirelessly is only something geeks can come up with, whereas Steve's suggestion of sharing earbuds is so much cooler and, dare I say it, sexually suggestive! ;)

I just downloaded the update, it told me something failed and I need to restore my iPhone. I am on try 3 and it is still failing every time it tries to restore. It's giving me error code 1013. I would stay away from this update for at least a day or two until others give feedback. It doesn't seem to be that critical of an update anyways.

It's not bricked. You've been using TinyUmbrella, so it didn't allow the baseband to get updated. Fix your hosts file and it will be fine.

Ulangtahun Hari Lahir.

This mythical creature is Rangda. Rangda is the demon queen of the leyaks in Bali, according to traditional Balinese mythology. The leyak is a mythological figure in the form of flying head with entrails (heart, lung, liver, etc.) still attached. It is said to fly trying to find a pregnant woman in order to suck her baby's blood or a newborn child. Don't they sound friendly?

The Magic Trackpad rules. Love it. Don't even use the mouse. It seems like you have to move the mouse so far to get it across the screen and with the Magic Trackpad its just gets you around the screen faster.

I've done it on two 5.5g iPods. The problem is iTunesDB on the iPod breaks down when you get to around 33,000 songs (and Rockbox doesn't do any better). Nobody really gets it right anyway, I bought a 500 gb Android Tablet (Archos 5) and it too breaks down around 33,000 songs.

It sounds like you're hitting a limit at 32,768. That makes sense, since Int16 can only store numbers up to 32,768 (15 bits plus a sign bit) and Apple engineers probably figured that should be more than enough.;)

others may find it useful, but why would one need to update on the go?

If you are away from your Mac that you sync with for an extended period of time.

I can't wait for this. Call me lazy, but I'm two small updates behind because I can't be bothered to sync my iPhone for fixes that don't affect me.

I'm hoping for wireless syncing with iTunes as well. The less I have to connect via a cable, the better.

If Apple OC doesn't come up with a solid reason as to why Canada or the US need to maintain a large standing military with enormous costs (such as threat level etc.) I am going to call troll. Cheers,

Ahmed

I can. The US, and Canada to a lesser extent, have a great many commercial interests all over the world. Some of these are in regions where the local people might be inclined at some point to arbitrarily and summarily upend the status quo and just take over carefully developed and husbanded resources or simply fail to recognise established rights and contracts. The parties involved in these enterprises are typically very wealthy individuals or groups who support the government officials who keep the military maintained in good condition to enforce proper capitalism across international borders.

As a side benefit, the "military industrial complex" is so deeply entangled in the domestic economy that serious cuts to its budget could spell financial disaster for dozens or hundreds of American communities (the situation is probably less tenuous in Canada).

Can someone give me some idea when the Apple Store Birmingham UK will get the new nano's in stock?

You could always call the store and ask... Might be quicker and more accurate than waiting for someone else from MR to answer.

Also some questions... (continued from my post on the previous page)

Is there anyway to get the new earbuds? The original buds do not fit my (small) ears, and I would like to try something new. Right now I'm using some Sony (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=4503996&st=headphones&lp=10&type=product&cp=2&id=1051806136350) over-the-head headphones.

Will there be a software update that will bring gapless playback and the other new features to the original nanos?

In addition to my promise to run around naked and post the video to the Internet if iMac gets Conroe, I will do the same if they introduce a phone at WWDC.

Not happening.

So, if Apple does both, will you then make 2 separate videos? Or will it be one with you and a friend? :D

You have to use a Mac running XCode to set the IPad in development mode to enable gesture support.

*next* Tuesday ;)

Merom in the iMacIntel does leave a space in the lineup for the Conroe Mini-Tower.

When they come out and we both buy one, can we have a little MacRumours party topic? We can dance all night long! ;)

I would be so happy!

Michael Jackson bought ATV, which owns the Beatles catalog, in 1985, and 10 years later, merged with Sony, creating Sony/ATV Music Publishing. Jackson and Sony co-owned the Beatles catalog. Following Jackson's death, Sony/ATV keeps control of the Beatles' songs.

It's not every Beatles song and they only have the publishing rights.

The (mechanical) rights to the Beatles recordings are totally separate and Sony/ATV has no control over these.

So has anyone placed an order yet - the stores been up for at least 10 minutes? Just waiting for the "waiting for my macbook thread".

I will have to call Apple. My serial number is within the range and it says it is invalid.

Dang this is, I just bought a new battery to replace the one Apple will now replace for free. I guess I can try and return it for something else after it gets here. I don't really like having two batteries.

Change the last digit of the batterys serial number to a "C" works every time.....

Nice... though maybe it's the sculptor I should be complimenting...

With that dynamic pose, I'd be tempted to clone out the stand at the bottom...
